what is the one resource you must have

[OnWisconsin]

when handicapping a game?

for me, i have been using fanbase.com a lot here lately. i've been tinkering with a new idea where i look at games that involve head coaches who have been around for a long time, and fanbase archives every single college team's games, all divisions, and every sport (college wise). very handy resource if you want to see how joe paterno does after suffering a home loss throughout his 40 + years.....

cash.

cash.

Unh. How does cash help you handicap a game? Does the Lincoln on the 5 spot talk to you or something?!

 

[TomGshotput]

because if you don't have any, the only thing you can win is feeling good that the picks you wrote about on the internet won

actually, cash might not be a bad idea. next time i sit down to do some studying, i might take the amount i'm planning on betting and lay it out in front of me....

if i did that though, i might never work my courage up to actually place the bet

Personal stats from two to three years back. I'd be lost without them.

Naw. I wish I had a subscription. I use the watered down version for free at Sportsbook.com

For anyone who doesn't know you click team statistics from the home page on left hand side

Not every game has some huge edge. Some days it loves 6 or 7 games, some days none. But it's good for line move stats and stat history.

amazingly i've been using yahoo for years and still do for research, but i also glance at statfox through the scoresandodds page.

But yahoo has pissed me off when they recently re-did the sports pages. I used to be able to click on a MLB team and hit stats and click hitting and get an overall avg. and then click for vs. LH or RH and get an avg. same for players also, now its all the same for the team, the team avg. doesn't change.
